Open-Source Tools and Resources for Audio-Visual ArchivesThis course was planned to be held at Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola in Donostia (San Sebastián), Spain, on 18–21 May 2020. Given CoViD-19, it will finally be a series of webinars spanning over two weeks. We will use the GoToMeeting platform and the full link will be provided by the school. AbstractThe class begins with an introduction on file formats. Building on this the students will practically explore free and open-source software, such as FFmpeg (for in-depth file transformation), QCTools (for quality control), AEO-Light (sound extraction from optical tracks) and DCP-o-matic (DCP encoding), as well as various media players. Resources on infrastructure and workflows for film and video digitisation will be presented and discussed, taking account especially of solutions which can be implemented in difficult environments at little expense. An overview on data preservation and migration, as well as disaster planning and recovery, will round off this class. LecturesTuesday 19th May, two sessions at 10:00–11:30 and 12:00–13:00
